LEECH'S PROFILE

author=WolfCoder
Actually almost every other game engine maker I know releases stable, functional, low-bug applications. And when they release a new version, they only slowly deprecate stuff. And people give them money because of this and they make a better version of the same thing or work on something else.

For example, WeaponBirth uses Acknex 6, but you'd only need a few fixes for it to work with Acknex 7 or even 8, if any at all thanks to Conitec Datensysteme being a good software firm.

Emptybrain however can get away with releasing shit and putting a 50 dollar price tag on it because they're popular and ONLY because they are popular.


Windows Vista at least wasn't missing half the features of XP (actually Vista had too many features running at the same time).


It'll be pretty sad if this project is a success because it means some single random insane furry-ish computer software programmer/scientist can beat them while having to go to college and a part-time job for free and non-profit- Beating the team of overpaid Japanese software monkeys. That's not how it should be, I shouldn't even have a chance of doing even nearly as good as they if they were a good software firm.

Their marketing people aren't very good either: If you see a bunch of your users sticking with RPG Maker 2003 it sure as hell isn't because they downloaded the English hack for free.

They've even threatened not to release future versions of RPG Maker in English because people kept translate hacking them back when they weren't available in English- that plan couldn't have even sounded good in their heads. If they wanted to min/max their cash flow they should have made a revamped version of 2003 with nex-gen systems. It's really easy to implement these features and it would be something that could actually be worth what they charge.. Haaa but what do I know? I'm just some random Internet open-source hippie!

However

The actual developers themselves might actually be really skilled people. This may actually be Enterbrain's fault. If you follow your leader's orders to a T even though you KNOW your leader doesn't know anything about what they're doing, it wouldn't be your fault. So this is aimed at whoever was in charge.

Well the red sphere in the background is supposed to be the "Bloodsphere". And the game does have pixelated blood in it :)

I know. I large, fire breathing turtle, with a bib, flying in a helicopter that looks like a clown makes me feel so, alive.
